effect that two or three days ago, as he was
passing between the Buttes and Live Oak.
he noticed that two wagons had stopped in
the road ahead of him, and when he ar
rived where they were he found the drivers
in a hot discussion, during which one
dared the other to fight, and after an
epithet had been applied to him the latter
consented. The newcomer was chosen
referee. and a bare-knuckle fight of two
minute rounds was entered upon, which
became very determined, occupying thirty

would not take the left-hand side of the

The Marshall Monument Commissioners
viii meet in this city on Monday evening,
May Both. On the following day they will
visit Coloma, FL Dorado county, and ar
range for the erection OF a monument over
the grave of ]. W. Marshall, the discoverer
OF gold, in accordance with an Act passed
at the last Legislature. The committee
consists of A. Caminetti of Amador, II. c..
Gessford of Napa and J. H. Miller of Sacra-
mento. The committee at their first meet
ing elected Caminetti President and Miller
Secretary. So far no plans have been
adopted, and will not be until after the
committee visits Coloma. The Secretary
is in receipt of a number of communica-
tons from parties desiring to compete for
the work, all of which will be answered as
soon as definite plans are adopted. Speak
ing of this matter the lf0ltatdi1 Democrat
OF the Dist says: Now that the Marshall
Monument Commission has had its duties
and powers defined, we would suggest that
ii consider the claims of Ell Dorado county
to furnish the material from which the
monument should be constructed. Ell
Dorado county granite has no superior in
the State, and what could be a more fitting
emblem over the grave of the discoverer of
gold in this State, than a shaft of granite
taken from the same soil that yielded to
the world the precious metal which has
immortaEEed the discoveries name"

Some Pertinent Suggestions.

EDs. RECORD UNION: Away back Cali
fornians sojourning in your city few days
note that Sacramento has the advantages
of the Capital, the machine shops of the
Central Pacific Railway, and the waters of
the Sacramento and American rivers, which
flow by the door. All these over any other
portion of this highly favored climatic
country. If some less favored portions of
the State had any one of these it would be
the means of great big boom.
Another matter: While Californians are
looking abroad for material for a President
in 1888, strange it has not occurred to any
that the State has within It's borders the
most available man in the nation, viz: Sem
ator Leland Stanford. He is man prom
inently qualified for the place by expert
ence and education-a man of and for the
people. l am not speaking in q party
sense. While the Governor is partisan,
he is also statesman.
Another suggestion: The LONG and
short haul business can be settled by the
General Government taking possession of
all interstate commerce and making tariff
